Switched from a blade grinder to a $40 hand burr grinder and the difference hit me on the first cup
Used the blade one for about a year and always got that bitter aftertaste no matter what beans I bought. The hand grinder takes 30 extra seconds every morning but the flavor is way cleaner, has anyone else noticed this jump or did I just get lucky with the beans?

Wait, you spent a whole YEAR with a blade grinder? Dude, a full trip around the sun of bitter coffee every single morning? I cannot wrap my head around that. A blade grinder is basically a tiny blender that just chops beans into random chunks, so of course you get powder mixed with rocks and it all brews uneven. Thirty extra seconds is nothing compared to 365 days of sad cups. What made you finally pull the trigger on the switch?
